Comments and Reviews
VMware vSphere is a great product - virtualization is changing IT in many good ways. One place where we can supplement this virtual IT evolution is in managing VM user access. Let's say you have 100 VMs and want to give someone lab or work access to control one or two VMs, but don't need this person to have full vCenter access.
Shameless plug: We have an app for that. NodeGrid Manager can provide limited user access to particular VMs.
Cheers, Ken

this say esxi is free, but it is 995$ for a permanent license. You can get a 60 day trial though. I was under the impression that you could just redo the trial every 60 days (as long as its home use.. single host type deal) and sites found on google claim you can just delete the old license and reboot the host..
This no longer works, or if it does, it didn't work for me. If someone knows how to get a new license, let me know.
This was nice until I hit the vCPU limits, then became useless, since Enterprise licensing is prohibitively expensive.
